Anyone use this with a RK 29×2.2 out back in the midwest? Namely MN or WI.

I’ve been riding MK 2.4′s on my Mamasita since February now. Love’em! Great all around tire. I’ve been running them with Stan’s sealant on a DT Swiss TK front rim and Stan’s flow rear. 25 psi seems to be the magic number for great performance and perfect shock absorption. Not great in wet clay conditions, but nothing is. Hard pack, loose rock, roots, etc. they grab.

Overall great tire if you don’t have the cash to be switching out tires for different terrain types.

yancy: Probably would fit a ’08 or ’09 model. And also, as my response to Dr.Dover indicates, a narrower rim will help in this regard.

Guitar Ted: Do you think the 2.4 MK would fit a C’dale caffeine 29er with wtb laserdisc wheels?
I have always thought C’dales to be a bit narrow in the stays.
